This year’s theme, “Integrating Scales and Modalities: The Future of Neurophysiology”, reflects the pressing need to bridge scales and modalities in our pursuit of understanding the brain. Building upon the success of the Inaugural ODIN Symposium, this event will once again provide a platform to showcase groundbreaking research, foster interdisciplinary collaboration, and address the challenges and opportunities in the rapidly evolving field of neurophysiology.

The conference will be held at the Allen Institute in the South Lake Union neighborhood of Seattle, about a 10 minute drive to downtown. A 270,000-square-foot life sciences building, it was purpose-built for life science research and facilitates our trademark team science approach amid abundant natural light and with stunning views of Seattle.

Upon arrival at the Allen Institute, check in at the lobby registration desk and pick up your badge. Please wear your name badge provided at check in for the duration of the event.
